Priority over Priorities

The purpose of the Priority over Priorities blog is to help you learn how to prioritize your goals and feelings to succeed in life. One must learn to discern the most important item from a list of important items. This blog also has another unique element: you can send the author an email about any subject or personal issue you would like him to write about to help you work through it. Bear in mind that the blog will focus on motivation and success and will follow a “how-to” format. Your name will be kept anonymous.

Have you ever been driving and felt that you wanted to exceed the speed limit, but didn't want to break the law? There are no laws for achieving success; you must be unafraid to try. Show no mercy! When forced to do something against one's will, individuals tend to revolt. When it comes to success, sometimes you have to revolt and break the rules to get to where you want to be. Finding success takes practice. You cannot get there until you learn that it is acceptable to fail at times and that you are not perfect.How many times can you afford to fail before you achieve success? This is a question you should ask yourself on a daily basis. Good results come from hard work, poor results come from inferior efforts, and any old results come from relying on the factors that surround you. You can leave success to fate, or you can take control of these factors. Don’t let the situation change you; it is up to you to change the situation to your advantage. As soon as you cease taking a stand, you abandon all hope. Even if you have to fight a billion people and exhaust yourself to the point of death, there is no other way. If a billion people are fighting for something, it must be awesome right? Never quit. Stop giving people things that they don’t earn, and conversely, stop taking things that you don’t earn for yourself.
